I'm very happy to be associated with Creative Poppy, today they introduced my designs which may be downloaded in either English or French versions of pdf charts. Working with them has been a pleasure! This is their introduction of Gracewood Stitches

I was so happy to find an out of print DMC color card for sale on ebay. This one has actual floss for reference and it has already helped my color selections in designs.

There is a seller in China that is supposedly selling these same cards, but their feedback wasn't the greatest so I waited and found a seller in the US and happily, it soon appeared and I snagged it :)

We've had two winter storms dump about a foot of snow on us in the last 24 hours, hopefully, I'll probably have plenty of stitching time in front of the woodstove for some time to come. As you can see, our Zoe, knows a good place to be in winter.

Our bird feeders are full of suet and seed and our usual birds and some migratory thrush are camped out nearby and rush in during breaks of wind and snow and some like this thrush couldn't wait!

Hope you like, Harvest Hum. It was fun to stitch and I think captured how this time of year feels to me. I'm still finding the box style enjoyable to work with and I am happy with the 'rickrack' style of border in the two shades of copper.

I hope to start 'Hope', LOL by the end of the day. I've chosen the dmc conversions to silk floss and will list them soon.

Contact Gracewood Stitches

I have always loved to cross stitch and in 2010 discovered the joy of designing my own patterns and invite you to share the process with me. If you have a desire to design I'm happy to share my experiences from first baby steps to publication.
I live on ten beautiful acres (Gracewood) in the northern Rocky Mountains with my husband, Terry. He is a very gifted artist working in many types of media.
